Do other people experience vaginal bleeding with a bowel movement post lap??

Hi, I am 6 weeks post lap surgery. I was bleeding for about 2 weeks post surgery then it sort of reduced to spotting. My first period since op lasted 12 days and since then I've been experiencing some vaginal discharge (almost flesh like and its not smelly) and bleeding especially when having a bowel movement. Wondering if this is normal? Have other people experienced something similar?

Thanks for reading x

I have vaginal bleeding when I have a bowel movement, for me I think it’s down to pushing as I have difficulty with having an actual bowel movement. I’m not sure if it’s normal, told my gynaecologist and she didn’t seem concerned 😦

Ps like your name as love cats 🐱😻
